Even when making outgoing connections, bind() is still used to select the
source address before the connect(). Not calling bind() signals the
kernel to select an appropriate default source address. Eg.
socket() /* create the socket */
...
bind() /* set source address/port */
...
connect() /* set destination address/port */
If you have a source snippet, or minimal-example that demonstrates the
problem that you are having please do post it, as that will aid further
investigation.
